Using the AD/AS model framework to illustrate and explain the effects of COVID 19 and the lockdown on the south African economy, assume that south Africa was in a state of full employment prior the pendemic and the lockdown
In 2008 regulators tightened regulations to make financial institutions strengthen their balance sheets. I would expect this to reduce the money multiplier and hence reduce the private sector money supply. About the same time central banks introduced qe to increase the money supply. In 2020 c ovid caused asset values to fall, hitting regulatory balance sheets producing further reduction in the money multiplier, and requiring further quantitative easing to compensate for the reduction in money supply. Is this a reasonable analysis?

It is most interesting that you wrote that Protectionism does not work.
But you failed to mention that countries like the UK and the USA used Protectionism to the MAX, to protect their infant industries. The UK did it even before the Industrial Revolution.
Then the same UK and USA told smaller nation states, in the 20th century, that protectionism was bad and they must liberalise their economies.

Hi, hope my question is not too theoretical/boring. I am looking for the correct phrase to describe the situation in which one country is economically behind another, so that the one that lags ends up omitting a whole stage of development, and that actually proves beneficial. E.g. due to their political transformations at the time, Eastern European countries skipped the phenomenon of checks and at some point moved straight to bank cards. While some Western countries still deal with checks, EE do not bother and use the much more convenient payment cards. Do you know if there is a name for this phenomenon? Thank you.
